One of the best defenses of YouTube's continued existence is this channel: Memoirs of WWII. The channel is run by a guy who finds and interviews WWII veterans, asking for their stories and filling in the backstory with research.
For all of you who are stuck in quarantine, now is a great time to check out this channel.
Here is one example of a great video:
94 yr old WWII Veteran Shares His Story
Here is an interview with one of the Tuskegee Airmen:
Memories of a Tuskegee Pilot
And then, here's one of my favorites:
WW2 Veteran Leads a Platoon In Africa and Across Europe
So if you need something to do, check out these videos.
If you are one of my readers with a credit card or a PayPal, you might consider making a donation to the channel on Patreon to help them reach as many WWII veterans as possible to collect their stories.
